When a loved one begins showing signs of memory loss, confusion, or changes in behavior, families often feel overwhelmed by new terminology, evolving care needs, and big decisions. At Comfort Keepers® Monrovia, we provide clear guidance and compassionate, specialized support so your loved one can remain safe, comfortable, and engaged at home—while you receive the relief and confidence you deserve.
Understanding Dementia and Alzheimer’s
Dementia describes symptoms that affect memory, reasoning, and daily functioning. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form, followed by vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Early signs can include forgetfulness that disrupts daily life, difficulty finding words, changes in mood or judgment, and increased confusion—especially in unfamiliar settings.
If you’re noticing changes, an early evaluation can help you plan effectively. After a medical diagnosis, our team builds a personalized at-home plan that supports current abilities, promotes safety, and anticipates future needs. Learn more about our programs on Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care.
How Dementia Is Diagnosed in Monrovia
Diagnosis typically involves your primary care provider and, when needed, a neurologist or memory clinic. The process may include:
Medical and family history
Cognitive assessments
Imaging or lab tests to rule out other causes
Once a diagnosis is made, families often turn to Care Services to coordinate safe routines, meaningful activities, and ongoing support at home.
In-Home Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care: What We Do
Our caregivers receive specialized training to support cognitive changes with patience, respect, and consistency. Services may include:
Personal care: bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting
Mobility support & fall prevention: safe transfers, home safety checks
Daily living support: meal planning and preparation, light housekeeping, laundry
Medication reminders & hydration support
Cognitive engagement: music, reminiscence, puzzles, conversation, and gentle routines that nurture connection
Behavioral support: techniques for wandering, sundowning, and agitation
24-Hour and Live-In Care for Higher Needs
When safety concerns increase—or family caregivers need extended relief—24-Hour Care provides continuous monitoring and night-time assistance. Around-the-clock support helps reduce hospitalizations, eases anxiety, and ensures help is always available.
Respite Care for Family Caregivers
Caregiving is a marathon. Respite care offers temporary coverage so you can attend appointments, rest, or travel while your loved one remains comfortable at home. Visits can be scheduled for a few hours, overnight, or multiple days. Learn more about flexible options through our Care Services pages.
Care Management: Coordinating the Details
Dementia care often involves multiple routines and providers. Our care management approach helps families:
Conduct an in-home assessment to understand preferences, risks, and goals
Create a personalized care plan that blends safety, daily structure, and meaningful engagement
Coordinate with healthcare instructions after clinic or hospital visits
Adjust the plan as needs change to maintain comfort and dignity

Choosing a Specialized Dementia Care Provider in Monrovia
What to look for:
Training & experience: caregivers educated in dementia techniques and communication
Continuity: consistent caregiver team to build trust
Clear communication: visit notes and updates for the family
Safety protocols: fall prevention, infection control, emergency readiness
Flexible scheduling: ability to add hours, overnights, or short-notice visits
You’ll find these standards woven into every aspect of our Care Services.
Personalized Care Plans That Evolve With You
No two journeys are the same. We tailor support to daily rhythms, favorite activities, cultural preferences, and family goals. Plans may include:
Structured routines and calming evening rituals
Home modifications and fall-risk reduction
Gentle cognitive activities and sensory comforts
Strategies for mealtimes, hydration, and sleep
Regular check-ins ensure the plan grows with changing needs—whether that means adding 24-Hour Care, expanding In-Home Care, or scheduling more frequent respite coverage.
Costs & Payment Considerations
We provide a clear written estimate based on visit length, frequency, and care level. Many families use private pay or long-term care insurance; eligibility for public programs can vary based on medical criteria and services. During your assessment, we’ll review options and create a schedule that meets care needs and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between dementia care and general senior care?
Dementia care focuses on memory support, communication strategies, and structured routines that reduce anxiety while maintaining dignity and safety.
Can we start small and add more hours later?
Yes. Many families begin with a few weekly visits and expand to overnights or 24-Hour Care as needs evolve.
How do you help with agitation or wandering?
We use gentle redirection, purposeful activities, and home safety measures (lighting, paths, cues) to promote calm and reduce risk.
Will my loved one have the same caregivers?
We prioritize continuity so your loved one can build rapport with a consistent, compassionate team.
Do you coordinate after a hospital or rehab stay?
Absolutely. We align the home plan with discharge instructions to support a safe recovery at home. See Specialized Care.
